<h2>Description<a class="headerlink" href="#description" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>This command is used with variables defined by the
<a class="reference internal" href="variable.html"><em>variable</em></a> command.  It assigns the next value to the
variable from the list of values defined for that variable by the
<a class="reference internal" href="variable.html"><em>variable</em></a> command.  Thus when that variable is
subsequently substituted for in an input script command, the new value
is used.</p>
<p>See the <a class="reference internal" href="variable.html"><em>variable</em></a> command for info on how to define and
use different kinds of variables in LIGGGHTS(R)-PUBLIC input scripts.  If a
variable name is a single lower-case character from &#8220;a&#8221; to &#8220;z&#8221;, it can
be used in an input script command as $a or $z.  If it is multiple
letters, it can be used as ${myTemp}.</p>
<p>If multiple variables are used as arguments to the <em>next</em> command,
then all must be of the same variable style: <em>index</em>, <em>loop</em>, <em>file</em>,
<em>universe</em>, or <em>uloop</em>.  An exception is that <em>universe</em>- and
<em>uloop</em>-style variables can be mixed in the same <em>next</em> command.</p>
<p>All the variables specified with the next command are incremented by
one value from their respective list of values.  A <em>file</em>-style
variable reads the next line from its associated file.  An
<em>atomfile</em>-style variable reads the next set of lines (one per atom)
from its associated file.  <em>String-</em> or <em>atom</em>- or <em>equal</em>- or
<em>world</em>-style variables cannot be used with the the next command,
since they only store a single value.</p>
<p>When any of the variables in the next command has no more values, a
flag is set that causes the input script to skip the next
<a class="reference internal" href="jump.html"><em>jump</em></a> command encountered.  This enables a loop containing
a next command to exit.  As explained in the <a class="reference internal" href="variable.html"><em>variable</em></a>
command, the variable that has exhausted its values is also deleted.
This allows it to be used and re-defined later in the input script.
<em>File</em>-style and <em>atomfile</em>-style variables are exhausted when the
end-of-file is reached.</p>
<p>When the next command is used with <em>index</em>- or <em>loop</em>-style variables,
the next value is assigned to the variable for all processors.  When
the next command is used with <em>file</em>-style variables, the next line is
read from its file and the string assigned to the variable.  When the
next command is used with <em>atomfile</em>-style variables, the next set of
per-atom values is read from its file and assigned to the variable.
When the next command is used with <em>universe</em>- or <em>uloop</em>-style
variables, the next value is assigned to whichever processor partition
executes the command first.  All processors in the partition are
assigned the same value.  Running LIGGGHTS(R)-PUBLIC on multiple partitions of
processors via the &#8220;-partition&#8221; command-line switch is described in
<span class="xref std std-ref">this section</span> of the manual.  <em>Universe</em>-
and <em>uloop</em>-style variables are incremented using the files
&#8220;tmp.lammps.variable&#8221; and &#8220;tmp.lammps.variable.lock&#8221; which you will
see in your directory during such a LIGGGHTS(R)-PUBLIC run.</p>
<p>Here is an example of running a series of simulations using the next
command with an <em>index</em>-style variable.  If this input script is named
in.polymer, 8 simulations would be run using data files from
directories run1 thru run8.</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre>variable d index run1 run2 run3 run4 run5 run6 run7 run8
shell cd $d
read_data data.polymer
run 10000
shell cd ..
clear
next d
jump in.polymer
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>If the variable &#8220;d&#8221; were of style <em>universe</em>, and the same in.polymer
input script were run on 3 partitions of processors, then the first 3
simulations would begin, one on each set of processors.  Whichever
partition finished first, it would assign variable &#8220;d&#8221; the 4th value
and run another simulation, and so forth until all 8 simulations were
finished.</p>
<p>Jump and next commands can also be nested to enable multi-level loops.
For example, this script will run 15 simulations in a double loop.</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre>variable i loop 3
  variable j loop 5
  clear
  ...
  read_data data.polymer.$i$j
  print Running simulation $i.$j
  run 10000
  next j
  jump in.script
next i
jump in.script
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Here is an example of a double loop which uses the <a class="reference internal" href="if.html"><em>if</em></a> and
<a class="reference internal" href="jump.html"><em>jump</em></a> commands to break out of the inner loop when a
condition is met, then continues iterating thru the outer loop.</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre>label            loopa
variable    a loop 5
  label          loopb
  variable  b loop 5
  print          &quot;A,B = $a,$b&quot;
  run       10000
  if     $b &gt; 2 then &quot;jump in.script break&quot;
  next           b
  jump           in.script loopb
label            break
variable    b delete
</pre></div>
</div>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre>next     a
jump     in.script loopa
